New Towns (Scotland) Act 1977
Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.
Change 1
4 Compensation for other persons.
The winding up body may, with the consent of the Secretary of State, meet all reasonable claims arising from the revocation of an order as mentioned in section 1(1)(a) of this Act, being claims— (a) in respect of expenditure incurred by a local authority or statutory undertakers in carrying out work required in connection with the development of the new town which is rendered abortive by the revocation; or (b) in respect of legal and other professional expenses incurred in the course of negotiations with the development corporation which are rendered abortive by the revocation.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
